Agreed its been better than I can remember. Big signals both ways and lots of folks on.

Roll up on 27.555 and listen never know who you might hear

Several stations I worked last weekend in Europe were running pretty simple set ups. A vertical antenna such as an A99 or Sirio stuff or other verticals. Most were just running 100 watts or so. It's all about conditions where your at.

It usually starts coming in around that time and hangs in till about 11:30 or so. They have been booming in here in Ky lately.

Saturday and Sunday mornings European skip was outstanding on 11 meters here in Ky. Worked some countries I had not heard before on 11. Croatia Bosnia and Bulgaria. Was pretty stoked lol.

The ebay ones look like they should work. The Maco ones I would think will as well. One thing you have to look for on the old Moonraker antennas are the hubs being cracked. Also lots of folks used to pin the hub to the boom so they don't move.

A lot of the HF guys stack their stuff verticaly. Might be an option.

Europe has been open every morning for the past 4 days here in KY. Big signals coming in. From about 0800 to 1200 est here. Made about 150 contacts in that time frame. Working on 27.555 and then moving. Hope it continues for a while.

Worked a lot of European DX this morning. Worked a couple stations in the Czech Republic which are pretty rare for me.

It's about 85 feet off the ground. The hf antenna is almost same height but the base of the tower is a lil up hill from the 11 meter beam.

Thanks it seems like it's going to do a great job. Worked bunch of European DX this morning hope to again tomorrow morning.

Wish I had gotten one up close on the ground. Here is one on the tower. It's the one in the foreground. The back one is my Pro 67 b 3.

Just put up a new Mosley A-511 5 element beam. Took my 4 element quad down got tired of it breaking. Had to take it down 4 times in the past 5 years. This is the only one like it they have ever made. It's on a 3" boom with elements that are 5/8 tubing coming off the boom with the ends 3/8...

Well I just put up a Mosley A-511 they built for me on a 3 inch boom and components. It went together great and swr 1.1 to 1.3 across the band. Direct fed no gammas or baluns to mess with. I also have a pro 67 b 3 Hf of theirs. Great antennas not cheap but made as good as it gets.

Europe has been blasting in here in Ky this morning. Made about 3 dozen contacts over there. It falls out about this time so maybe again tomorrow.
